The Absolute: Humanity's Second Chance
Chapter 100 Space Exploration

'Wait... So you're saying a mortal's comprehension of the Void, will be different to what a demigod considered what a Void was?' It asked.

'No? It doesn't follow the aspect of Leagues, but Existential difference? So a god's Void, is very much different to a mortal and a demigod's Void? Is that it?'

'I see... So what Void am I comprehending now? What Void are you?'

'The god's Void? I see?'

The Void trembled at his response, giving him more information. '...Alright. So I'm now comprehending you as a Universal Law? The Void can also be a Universal Law and a much powerful Law at the same time?'

'Truly amazing... So the Void can be all encompassing? It can be there for everyone, regardless of how strong or weak they are? Be it human, or god, or anything beyond.'

The Void trembled even greater to his comprehension. Damien nodded, and as he did, he felt the soul clone slowly break down into invisible particles.

'Hm?' It responded in shock, but then the Void calmed him down, and gave him more information. 'Ah... You are genuinely amazing. So the Void isn't just all encompassing, it is also nothing?'

'And nothing stems from nothingness, which is present throughout all of Reality and beyond. Throughout the hearts of men, and the consciousness of gods. And throughout the existence of those beyond.'

'That is... Void...'

The soul clone completely broke down into nothingness, disappearing into the Void, and becoming a part of it. But Damien's voice lingered throughout the area.

"So this... is what the Void is?" At the same time, he opened his eyes, which had a combination of grey and blue, hovering around dull silver, yet seemingly bottomless.

At the same time, when he woke up from his meditation, The Primordial Source alerted him of an impossible action done.

[ TING!!! ]

[ Congratulations!! You've done the absolute impossible!! Mortals naturally have no sense of the Laws, and even most demigods have not comprehended a Law before complete godhood. Such an action is impossible for them, let alone for a mortal ]

[ But today, you've done an impossible feat, and comprehended the all powerful Universal Law of the Void. You have comprehended one of the few Fundamental Universal Laws of Reality ]

[ Due to your Cryptic Class, and perfect Affinity to the Void, you've obtained the "Void Embodiment" Unique Ability ]

[ You have obtained basic (25%) natural resistance to all elements. The higher your comprehension of the Void Universal Law, the higher your resistance to all Universal Laws. Current resistance: 1% ]

[ The Wings of Endless Ash have resonated with you, and have given you the complete Affinity towards Ashes. It has also given you the chance to comprehend its Universal Law of Ashes, and become its true Master ]

[ If the illusory Universal Law of Ash is obtained, and infused into it, there is a high chance of evolution, if both Universal Laws are used to nourish it for days or month or even years. The time might be long, but there chance exists ]

"..."

Damien was presented with such information, and he did not waste it. He immediately closed his eyes, and chose to comprehend the Universal Law of Ashes.

He already had experiences with perfectly comprehended Universal Laws from his previous timeline, let alone their initial state. Plus, he now had complete Affinity to it.

Unfortunately for a certain someone, just when Damien went back to comprehending another Universal Law, they just stood by frozen in stupor, with their outstretched hand.

"..."

Flint then slowly pulled it back, silent and awkward. He had been waiting for quite a while, and thought that Damien would wake up soon enough.

And he did, indeed wake up. But he went back to 'sleep' right after. He felt like it would take a long time before he woke up, and wanted someone to talk to badly.

"...I guess, I got plenty of free time, huh?" He thought, stretching his senses throughout the Void they were in.

Yet even his senses of a lesser god failed to detect anything within range, which was quite sad. Sad for him, for he was genuinely bored out of his wits.

"Is there really nothing but emptiness around here? Damn. This is like a prison of sorts. And I feel like staying here for longer periods of time is not safe." He thought to himself.

Yet here he stood, completely fine. Even a mortal like Damien was completely fine as well. "I guess I'm over exaggerating the situation due to boredom."

He then created a clone of flames, and sent it flying through the Void at his fastest speed. The clone was tens of times faster than light, as it's strength was only 1% of his overall stats.

Afterwards, he immediately disappeared and went into his Domain. "Since there is nothing for me to do, why not manage my Domain?"

Such thoughts were logical.

He then appeared within a land of flames everywhere. The sky was completely red, and filled up with orange and golden clouds.

The mountains and earth were also red tinted, the oceans were lava, and the trees had grey barks and purple leaves.

Basically, this Domaim was like an inversed Gaea. Everything green was purple, almost everything that was wood was gray, everything liquid was lava, everything blue was red.

This was his Domain, the abode of the god of nemesis fire himself, the Nemesis Hell.

"...Feels bleak and lonely though. Damn, reflects my current emotional state." He thought, watching the vast land that was further increased when he created it.

It was now a thousand times the size and area of earth. But because of its vast size, and no appearance of any living beings, it gave out feelings of loneliness.

And thus, the poor young god floated through his vast Domain of solitude, and felt lonely himself. Meanwhile, his clone flew through space at great speed.

"..."

It silently flew through the void at ten times the speed of light, and made do to keep the same pace four quite the long run.

And beknowest to it, a whole 24 hours flew by, and the distance it covered was immeasurable to any mortal mind. 'Sometimes, its nice to have Infinite reserves. Well no, I guess, everytime?'

It thought, as from a far distance, it could see a gathering of various colored lights, that brightened up quite a distance of the Void.

The lights range from different spectrum of intensity, and different colors, each color also having various version with various intensity.

It was quite beautiful to the highest degree. Like a bubble made up of rainbow colored glitter, inside out, floating within an endless sea of darkness.

"...Beautiful." The clone thought, increasing its speed once more and flying straight towards the bubble of exotic wonder.

A minute or so of flight, the clone arrived near the gathering of lights. And now that he was close, he came to realize that even the smallest light was something of immeasurable size.

"Woah. What's this... Seems powerful." It thought, slowly entering into the sphere of influence of the construct, the bubble.

Once in, it weirdly felt a heavy load fall off his shoulders. A feeling similar to getting out of the pool, and back on the surface.

Niether uncomfortable, nor bothersome. But it still felt better with it off his shoulders.

That was not all. He also felt, emotionally wise, feelings he never experienced before. What he was seeing, was a spiral made up of so much green light, it felt dense and material.

Like a mystical whirlpool within a sea of darkness. That was not all, not too far from it, he saw another whirlpool of red light, another one of blue light, and more of royal green light.

Various numbers of them. And in some cases, there were nests of them, bundled up together, each of various colors. Everything was just too amazing.

"What are these...? So beautiful... So refreshing..." He subconsciously thought.

He then sent his will throughout the one he met, and his senses scoured through it all. In a few minutes, he was done going through the whole spiral of light, twirling magnificently within the darkness.

"...Goddamn, that's even more beautiful..." And such a response escaped his mouth.

Within the spiral of green light before him, he saw multiple things. Gigantic spheres of darkness with a connected ring to their bodies, pulling in their soroundings, and devouring them.

Even if it felt like it had no force against that thing. Like it would also also devoured, were it were to go there.

And there were also various colored smaller spheres, that seemed to burn in various colors of flames. Yet none being more powerful than his own flames.

There were also some of them, being sorounded by other spheres, some made up of rocks, water, plants, air and even clouds. All of them rotating around the flaming spheres, which were also larger than them.

And many more wonderful constructs could he seen. All presented to him.

Unfortunately, once more, no lifeforms were found within all of them. All hundreds of billions of spheres, no life could be felt within them.
